Yeah, can't wait for the fight now. Weight cut is going to be very smooth, I can tell already. I don't seem to be able to find that PM, sorry. I was always a big boxing fan when I was younger, loved watching Lennox Lewis, Steve Collins, Wayne McCullough, Bernard Dunne, Oscar Dela Hoya, Marco Antonio Barrera, Ricky Hatton and so many others but never got to train boxing because my mother didn't like the idea.

Then after my first year in college I started watching the UFC full time, watching every event live and then 6 months after becoming an avid fan, I began training in college under my current coach Oisin McCabe. Even when I just started watching MMA, I immediately loved the ground game and it was the same when I started training. Jiu jitsu for life, I'd rather submit someone than knock them out.

I would be cheering for Frankie but at this point I think the fight could be won by Conor. The Brandao fight was so impressive, I am as convinced as ever that Conor is the guy to beat at FW, the champion in waiting. You?

I really think all the McGregor Haters are in for a not so big surprise, at least imo. I think he's better than given credit for regardless of where you want to fight him. I admit to being a "fanboy" as Rico likes to call me but I think he will be champ. Maybe at LW also

I think Frankie beats everyone not named Conor/Aldo but wouldn't surprise me if he gets to wear a belt again either. I really like Frankie...a lot but I'm on the Notorious bandwagon hard. Like Porier also but I just can't pull against the Irish Warrior

Well
Said
Lil brother. The FW DIV is one of my fav w/out a doubt. Lot of great matchups and I agree with your' assessment on the potential champion scenarios as well as the cub/Jeremy fight. Also looking forward to seeing your' next scrap as well :/)

He raises some decent points but I think it's more to do with BJ's mind just not having the fight in it any more, when the going got tough, he just didn't have the hunger to try different things and take risks.

Yep. Good article, but I think the Rory fight took a lotout of him as well. Either way he just didn't look right in there. Even tho I expected Edgar to win, I really expected the fight to be relatively close. Maybe just wishful thinking on my part

I want Conor to go off the grid until the Cole fight, dominate, then stay quiet again, get his next opponent (Lentz/Poirier I reckon) beat his *** and then call out Jose. He needs a 4 or 5 fight streak to get a shot at FW. I think the UFC genuinely wants to give him an easy ride to the top though, they want Conor vs Aldo for big $$$, hard to get an easy ride at FW though

I didn't see the edgar special, must watch it later. Yeah his only real loss was to Maynard in the first fight. He beat Bendo in the second for sure and could argue that he beat Bendo in the first and Aldo too. Frankie is the MAN!!!

Nah man, only the haters can deny that Edgar is only a hair away from being right there in the P4P discussions. No shame in his game bro. If you can't recognize that whether ya like him or not then your' not paying attention

Thanks that fight is at 65kg, I am carrying a bit of weight at that weight class too and the other guy was tall and lean and cutting weight. I should be fighting at 57kg which I will be for my next fight.

what up? do you actually have footage of your fights? If so, I'd like to check em out, and I hope you accomplish your' goals as a fighter, my ship has sailed, but I always wonder "what if?" considering the choice to pursue other sports over boxing/fighting. Im pulling for ya!
